You can do it, but it's a bit tricky.

You mainly need to go through the ibproarcade files and rename all instances of arcade.php to ibproarcade.php. There are also a couple of references to 'arcade' that need changing to 'ibproarcade'. Then you need a bit of template trickery in the ARCADE template.

The database entries for the 3.5 version of v3Arcade are different to those used in the 3.0 version so although the tables are still intact you won't be able to use them and will need to reinstall all the games.

Finally, one consequence of running both arcades is that ibproarcade games will NOT run on v3Arcade as you have to disable the compatibility plugin, else it buggers up the ibproArcade score submissions. But if you do run both anyway this isn't a major issue.

Basically unless you're pretty good with php stuff I wouldn't attempt to run both. I needed some assistance to get it done and even then there is lots of trial and error testing to find odd references to arcade that need changing to ibproarcade.
